Tim Kimmel's Grace Based Parenting is my favorite GBD book. I would love to get my hands on his other relationship/family books, but haven't had it in the budget yes. He even has one geared toward grandparents and their role!

I've read everything by L.R. Knost except her most recent (Jesus the Gentle Parent) and they were all great. Very applicable stuff.

Give Them Grace has one offhand line about "of course this doesn't mean we don't spank our children" or something absurd like that, that pretty much runs counter-intuitive to the message of the entire rest of her book. *headscratch* Otherwise I would recommend it.

Spirit-Led Parenting: From Fear to Freedom in Baby's First Year is my favorite grace-based book for the very early days, when new parents might be particulalry tempted to cave to sleep training.
